Book excerpt: Mentions the difficulty in finding appropriate lodging in Dresden, the weather and the health of Mr. Lewes. She thinks that Lewes will get "run-down" again, which she writes is a broken metaphor, but Shakespeare surely has made broken metaphors "exquisite, " as Mr. [Charles] Knight thinks he has made bad grammar.

This book was released on 1990 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Office building envelopes are generally successful in meeting a range of structural, aesthetic and thermal requirements. However, poor thermal envelope performance will occur when there are discontinuities in the envelope insulation and air barrier systems, such as thermal bridges and air leakage sites. These discontinuities result from designs that do not adequately account for heat, air and moisture transmission, with many thermal defects being associated with inappropriate or inadequate detailing of the connections of envelope components. Despite the existence of these thermal envelope performance problems, information is available to design and construct envelopes that do perform well. In order to close the gap between available knowledge and current practice, the Public Buildings Service of the General Services Administration has entered into an interagency agreement with the Center for Building Technology of the National Institute of Standards and Technology to develop thermal envelope design guidelines for federal office buildings. The goal of this project is to transfer the knowledge on thermal envelope design and performance from the building research, design and construction communities into a form that will be used by building design professionals. This report describes the NIST/GSA envelope design guidelines development at the end of the first year of effort on the project. The effort to this point has consisted of a literature review of research results and technical information on thermal envelope performance and design, an assessment of existing design guidelines as they relate to the thermal envelope, and the development of a format and outline for the design guidelines.

Book excerpt: This book results from a Special Issue published in Energies, entitled “Building Thermal Envelope". Its intent is to identify emerging research areas within the field of building thermal envelope solutions and contribute to the increased use of more energy-efficient solutions in new and refurbished buildings. Its contents are organized in the following sections: Building envelope materials and systems envisaging indoor comfort and energy efficiency; Building thermal and energy modelling and simulation; Lab test procedures and methods of field measurement to assess the performance of materials and building solutions; Smart materials and renewable energy in building envelope; Adaptive and intelligent building envelope; and Integrated building envelope technologies for high performance buildings and cities.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper addresses the evolution of ASHRAE Standard 90.1, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings , with regard to the continued long-term increase in thermal performance levels required of commercial building envelope and fenestration systems. The trend of increasing thermal performance levels for building envelopes has had a significant impact on design and the materials, systems, and products available for use in exterior building envelopes. This is particularly true when considering buildings of size or simplicity that do not warrant thermal modeling of the entire building or envelope system to validate compliance with mandated energy performance levels. As a widely recognized, and most often code-mandated, standard, ASHRAE 90.1 significantly impacts the selection of materials, products, and systems available for compliance with required energy standards. As increases continue through the most recent edition of ASHRAE 90.1 and as U-values become more stringent for materials, products, and systems in specific envelope applications, identifying options for the design of buildings becomes more challenging. The demand for additional options also increases, which will hopefully spur greater interest in the development of new and improved envelope materials, systems, and products to meet the demands of aesthetics and the more stringent energy performance requirements. As requirements for energy performance increase, the number of buildings and envelope systems evaluated by thermal modeling to confirm compliance with new standards is also likely to increase. Compliance with the new ASHRAE 90.1 "prescriptive" requirements has been challenging and appears likely to become even more so. This paper includes consideration of a 20-year period (1999-2019) of evolving ASHRAE 90.1 standards and criteria for prescriptive building envelope thermal performance, and specific examples of the types of restraints currently being experienced by designers is included.
